Community: The Australian FGC Episode 04 - Daichi Dissects

A community consists of so many different kinds of people. Intellectuals, staunch regulars, streamers, tournament organisers, anime lovers, commentators, retro game enthusiasts and those dudes that go 0-2 and just keep coming back (example, me). Everybody is an equally important part of our community and without these guys there wouldn’t be a community to exist in the first place.

I wanted to shine some spotlight on these less heralded people, and to also let the greater public know about all the different personalities and great people we have in our local fighting game community (FGC). Generally in FGC media you see the top players get most of the camera time, but in my eyes, a community is not simply made up of top players.

Today, we take a break from our usual programming to bring you a very special episode- Daichi Dissects!

Daichi Akahoshi, hailing from Japan, is Melbourne’s resident Magneto master and Vergil abuser. He possesses a keen and incredibly scientific mind for the game of Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3. In this episode he sits down with us to analyse the games and play-styles of various Marvel players in Australia. From young up and comers, students of the game, and even how Ali isn’t actually random, he breaks it all down for us in his own unique and humorous way.
The players covered in this episode are:

Hope you guys like this special edition of Daichi Dissects! Just in time for the FGC major in the Marvel state itself – Queensland’s ButtonSmash (from the 15th – 16th of March).
